Welcome to the HP support community.

Are you getting any errors while installing the cartridge and connecting to the network?

Which password are you looking for?

i don't get any error messages. We were given the printer because they couldn't get it to work.  i need to find the custom password because the printer is set up with Germany as preference with English language.   Will this stop it connecting to my network ?

Is the printer asking for an admin password?

[nc57]

Could you send the screenshot of the error which you are getting for better understanding?

Sorry i don't get an error message. This printer doesn't recognize the black starter ink. Also it is  asking for an custom password when i tried and connect to our wifi network. The other thing it has a  region preference of Germany when i tired to change it to the uk it is asking for the custom password again. So my question is how do i find the custom password for this Deskjet 2634 or is there a way to factory reset the printer so i can start again?

i tried this. It still doesn't connect to the network. So can't update firmware.  For some reason the country preference is set up as Germany, which i think is why the ink cartridge is not being recognized and why it will not connect to my network.  When i tried to change it to the uk, it asks for a customer password.  So how do i find the password ?

Sorry miss type. Custom password is what i am after.
